Our hearts are bursting with excitement because we did it! Together, we’ve made a life-changing difference for an incredible young man—Tiziano. Thanks to your support, Tiziano now has his custom-built, state-of-the-art adapted basketball wheelchair, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to share this moment with all of you.
Last month, we surprised Tiziano with the wheelchair he had been dreaming of, and it was a moment filled with pure emotion. When we finally revealed the chair to him, it was clear that this wasn’t just about basketball anymore—it was about freedom, hope, and a future full of possibilities. You can catch the heartwarming moment in the video we shared on our socials, and trust us, you don’t want to miss it. There wasn’t a dry eye in the room!This isn’t just about what we gave Tiziano—it’s about the incredible community of people who came together to support him. YOU made this happen, and we couldn’t have done it without your donations, encouragement, and belief in his journey.
We knew from the moment we heard about Tiziano that we had to do something. His mentor, Marcelo, reached out to us to share his story, and it didn’t take long for us to realize that this was bigger than basketball. Tiziano needed the right tools to continue chasing his dreams, and with your help, we raised €1,500 to get him the best wheelchair possible.
For those of you who are new to Tiziano’s story, here’s a quick rewind:
Tiziano’s journey began in tragedy. At just three years old, he lost his legs in an accident that also claimed his mother’s life. Raised by his grandmother, he faced more heartache when she passed away suddenly, leaving him in the care of her boyfriend and cousin. But through every hardship, Tiziano showed unshakable strength.
It was Marcelo, stepping in as a mentor and father figure, who introduced Tiziano to basketball—an outlet that would transform his life. Fast forward a few years, and Tiziano didn’t just get good at the sport; he became a rising star, earning a spot on Argentina’s national adapted basketball team and leading his club to new heights.
But the challenges didn’t stop there. Tiziano struggled with financial barriers and an old wheelchair that couldn’t keep up with his performance on the court. That’s when we knew we had to step in.
Thanks to this new wheelchair, Tiziano can now continue to pursue his dream of becoming the best, whether that means playing professionally in Europe or inspiring others who face their own battles.
This is just the beginning for Tiziano, and we’re so proud to have been part of his journey. Thank you to each and every one of you for making this possible. Together, we’ve changed a life, and we can’t wait to see where Tiziano’s unstoppable spirit takes him next!
As always, none of this would have been possible without YOU—our supporters, our partners, our family. Together, we have transformed Tiziano’s dream into reality. Thank you for making this journey with us, for every kind word, every donation, and every bit of encouragement. You’ve given Tiziano more than a wheelchair; you’ve given him hope for a brighter future.
Stay tuned for more stories like Tiziano’s—there are still so many dreams left to fulfill, and with your help, we’ll keep making them come true.
